[super_dn]

Hello my Nico family.....decided to drink the other day with a couple friends. we were pretty tipsy and started discussing about cars and then.. I made the drunk decision to just go for it and buy it.


was currently on eibach...


2 weeks later....


installing...


installed... (just got out of class walking to the car)




Haven't had a chance to wash my car so ill update with more pictures soon.

Funny story I was at a party the other day and my drunk friend had an impulse buy and bought vmaxx coilovers for his mini cooper!

Future mods I might get?
hmm definitely looking for some foglights... maybe that CF trunk from AIT... or rear roof spoiler perhaps.

and btw. that is NOT the lowest it can go... I was so dropped I couldn't get out of my friend's garage.. We couldn't even take out the jack lift underneath. For those who are wondering.

Nice mod, how is the ride?

Did you install a mesh into the C-Mod Grille?

[DJ_B_Easy]

NICE! I have pulled the trigger on more than one mod purchase after a few sips o' the sauce.

The car looks sick on coilovers.... Also those wheels make it stand out more... Are those ASA wheels? they look just like my ASA AR9 wheels.

GrayCoupe - Thanks! it should of been the FIRST mod done to my car... it rides pretty nice actually, no finger gaps and still good enough to be my daily driver. I want to go lower but I noticed the altima's frame is a bit lower then most cars, making it kinda harder for us to drive being low. and yeah its a custom mesh I made. im suprised you noticed that mesh. On the first picture its the regular mesh that comes with the cmod. IMO i think the gaps of the original mesh is too big.. making people cut their support bar or paint there radiator.. so i kinda bought some supplies and redid it.

DJBeasy - haha i need to do it more often! i haven't regretted it once since i bought them.. just needed that push to spend the extra $$$. I should online shop drunk more often, hopefully it doesn't kill my credit!

Eric Noa - the car does look so much better dropped on coilovers... I'm glad you like the wheels! They're Motegi racing.. unfortunately I am getting bored of them and might sell them and look for a new pair of shoes.. maybe g37s..

Which coilovers did u go with? I love how the car looks....

[2010alticoupe]

Hey bro were the rear coils one unit? Or two separate parts? I have the BC Coilovers and its an individual spring and separate shock

[downedzephyr]

your car reminds me of someone elses, just in black. cant quite put my finger on it though...

The AR9 make the coupes look awesome.... but if it was on coils it would look so much better... I might need to replace my Eibach for coils..

[deadlock1906]

Looks good!! but I just can't seem to push the "buy" but on coilovers drunk or sober LOL.. are you selling those Eibachs?

[PHENOMenalVinyl]

Which brand did you go with?

Also our frame is crazy low my underneath of the car is 2in off the ground yet my front lip is like 3 and a half its crazy.

[super_dn]

There D2 Coilovers. The rear was all in one unit.

lol downedzephyr our cars are pretty identical.. post up recent pictures of your car! I wanna see how more of it..

Eric Noa - do it, I had eibach on for less than a year... I just wanted to go LOWERRR. and those AR9 looks so fresh.. I think it looks good on any color coupe

PHENOMenalVinyl - LOL you know exactly what I'm talking about.. its sucks that other slammed cars can still clear speed bumps.. ours would get F*****

Yes, I am selling my eibachs.. I can install them for you too (HOUSTON AREA) I had them less than a year..

Love it. Looking good zephyr

[mmx23z]

D you gotta lose that front lisence plate!

[IBCoupe]

^ That. Even the stock bumper looks much better with plugs:

[mattyfo0z]

Do it! I've had mine off for almost two months now (I live in CA too), no problems so far. Knock on wood.

Don't get rid of the front plate bro. Its not worth getting a lame ticket for it. My cousin got ticketed more than once. And he was just parked on the street

[downedzephyr]

it's not worth it for me. my college is right in the middle of downtown so i have to park in my university's parking garages; in addition the parking enforcement for the university are actual cops, so it's not worth the ticket. add in the car shows i'm in, and i'd be paying a good chunk of cash on bs tickets.

i </3 OFC Rosette, people from Fremont know what im talking about. pulls you over just to make you pop your hood and give you no front plate tickets.

[super_dn]

you posted pictures, thanks.
your car looks gooddd downedzephyr, I want those side skirts pretty bad lol, and damn I definitely need fogs now

and for the license plate, you should leave it on if cops give you a hard time.
Luckily I'm from Houston and cops are pretty lenient about it. I only get a ticket if I'm caught speeding and they just add it to my speeding ticket. Other than that a cop never ticketed me for not having one.

you should think about tinting those tails!
